On this site you will find a selection of my writing, on a range of subjects: philosophy, politics, art, finance and social business. Some of this work has been published elsewhere and some of which is only available here.
Each time a new piece of writing is added to the site it will also be profiled on this page. The work has been divided into three categories.

Shorter pieces are classified as articles
Longer pieces are classified as essays
Pieces that comment specifically on the work of others are classified as reviews

The site was launched in January 2009. I hope you find it interesting.

Latest additionTo celebrate the Tenth Anniversary of my website I have added a couple of new pictures, for which much thanks to Helmi Okpara.

I have also published two further pieces on the The Essence of Water website. These now comprise a series of five inter-connected articles, which reflect on the way in which we can prepare ourselves to manage the challenges and setbacks in life, which all of us face from time to time. The two new articles are called On Unhappiness and On Thinking. It doesn't matter in which order you read them, so long as you read them all!
